Javascript Testing: The Holy Grail

There is a holy grail for Javascript developers: Getting a test suite up and running fast and have multiple browsers execute the tests. Getting the holy grail is damn hard. Look how much work Indiana Jones had to get it – and he didn’t even have program!

There are barriers to entries everywhere. How is it easy to get going testing small parts of Javascript functionality. What happens as your become bigger and more complex? What about headless testing? Does this process scale up to CI? Can I even do this stuff locally? There are a myriad of testing tools and solutions. I’ll show you what’s out there and what we as a community need to do next to get to the Holy Grail to ensure a better web experience for everyone.
